Ucluelet

We were having difficulty finding time to just be together without having an agenda. So at the last minute we decided to take the kids to Ucluelet for the weekend. For those who don't know Ucluelet is on Vancouver Island's west coast near Tofino. We had an amazing weekend. The weather was fantastic and so were the kids. We rented a cabin on the beach and just enjoyed being a family. The kids were very impressed with giant waves and the vast expanses of beach. Paul and Ryan claimed squatters rights in a driftwood fort and enjoyed playing their morning away making "additions". Marie stomped and splashed in every single puddle she could find including the great puddle called the pacific. I was very glad to have packed the mud pants for all five of us :-). The kids were excellent even on the four + hour drive and we have resolved to do this kind of thing a little more often.
